031: Travis McVey, Founder of Heroes Vodka

The founder of Heroes Vodka, Travis McVey joins the Cigars and Sea Stories team to talk entrepreneurship and veteran collaboration.

Travis is a Marine, having served at 8th & I in the national capital region and 2/8 weapons out of Camp Lejeune. The loss of his dear friends and comrades inspired him to create a brand of spirits which, would hail the fallen as heroes for their sacrifice.

Now you are able to celebrate their lives through award-winning quality vodka that is distilled in the same hallowed halls as one of our nation’s most well-known whiskeys, Jack Daniels.

Travis works hard to bring a high quality product to market and collaborates with fellow veterans to grow along the way. He has also highlighted the veteran community in a positive way by sharing the accomplishments of fellow veterans. In his book, “Heroes of The Stage” Travis highlights the vets who went on to become country music performers, and some who became out-right super stars in the entertainment industry. Shining the spotlight on those who went through the ranks and on to greatness in hopes of inspiring and empowering others.
